EDIT: It seems that Tomshardware has misrepresented AMD’s statement in a more positive light.
See the following GN video: AMD Says We’re “Confused”
Ah, yes, the “Honey it’s not what it looks like” of the tech conglomerates
Hmm. That’s worrying. I was probably going with AMD next to around, but them being semi-EOL’d after six years gives me pause. That would make my current GPU nearly be EOL.
Sounds like they are backtracking based on “market needs” which sounds like “we’ll support this until people get complacent” – not what I want to hear after spending $700+ on a component.
Come to Linux and get 15+ years of support with AMD cards.
That’s a tough sell if you are trying to resell older components to subsidize new ones :/

With Nvidia it has always seemed like with new upgrades older cards were made slower on purpose. AFAIK AMD never did that. So if you had a 3 year old AMD it would perform faster than when it was released, while a 3 year old Nvidia would be slower. Which is why AMD got the reputation of aging like fine wine.
